Submergent species, or those that
remain under water such as elodea,
are often used as oxygenators. These are plants that remove carbon dioxide
from the water and add oxygen. These plants are essential in most ponds
to keep the water clear.
When planning the plants to place in a home pond or [backyard water garden], consider a mix of emergent, submergent, and floating species.
